Living Independently

Financial Assistance

We Help You Find Payment Options That Work For You

With more than 50 years of experience, we can help you determine your eligibility for funding based on your specific needs and financial situation. Depending on your income and resources, many of our services can be paid for privately or may be covered by your insurance. In many cases, our services can be paid for with medical assistance funding available through the state. We’ll help you determine the best payment option for you. We assist thousands of individuals who choose to live independently in their own homes instead of in a facility or nursing home.

Special Needs Trusts

We can work with your financial institutions, attorneys, and advisors to help you maximize the extent and utility of medical care funds, trusts or settlements, while ensuring the best personalized care. We can connect you with resources to advise on agreements that allow an adult child or other relative to be supported from an aging parent’s assets.

PA State Funded Programs

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania developed Home and Community Based Services (HCBS) as a result of a congressional law enacted in 1965. These services allow Pennsylvanians, even with severe disabilities, to live at home.

There are HCBS programs for individuals with disabilities aged 18-59, and other programs for individuals aged 60 and older. These programs are funded through the Office of Long-Term Living or the Bureau of Autism Services. Some HCBS programs are known as “waiver programs” because the federal government waives rules in order for the state to provide services to people at home and in the community of their choice.
